It's really simple, the horn pad pulls off exposing a large nut (21mm? Citation needed...). As per usual Clark's Garage has a write-up on it. It's a good idea to use marking paint on the shaft so you have an idea on how to center it up when you go to reinstall.

Actually, it's 24mm...

Pretty sure mine was 21mm also.

-Remove the horn pad buy pulling it straight off. Three clips hold it on.
-Unclip the wire for the horn on the back of the pad
-Remove the but that holds the steering wheel in place
-Use a paint marker and draw a line over the steering shaft and wheel to mark the position of the steering wheel
-Wiggle the wheel top to bottom and pull towards you. The wheel should slide right off.
